    i found with a cold I had no stamina at all. never really understood the fuss about naz or hatton fighting with a cold. then i realised. =no energy at all and exhausted early.

    It would be my first fight, 3 rounds of two minutes. I also havent trained for like a week and a cold really messes up my stamina,lung capacity and my reflex/sharpness. I could always play soccer fine with a cold but boxing just fatigues me much faster than normal

    Last time I trained was monday a week ago.

    I'll probably wait till friday until I decide if I pull out or not. It's an event and they have a reserve list so that wont be a problem

    Sounds like you have already decided not to fight

    Why the **** would you fight with a cracked rip and torn rotator cuff? Mainly cracked rib WTF?
    you entered the fight injured or you got injured during the fight?

    Watched a friend take a fight while he was sick. He was a human punching bag.

    If I went through the training, I think I would drop a tea bag and overlook the cold dude. Some ginger root gets the fix too
